Helping Families and Friends Honor Their Loved One

Gregory Allan “Greg” Cresswell, 76, of North Little Rock, Arkansas, passed on January 19, 2026, in his home. Born on August 26, 1949, in Seattle, Washington, to Charles W. Cresswell and Betty Lou Hallock, Greg lived a life filled with faith, music, laughter, and a deep love for his family. He was a beloved son, brother, father, husband, grandfather, and friend.

Greg is now fully healed and singing joyfully in heaven’s choir, a fitting home for a man who carried music in his soul. Music shaped his life, whether through playing guitar, singing often and loudly, or making up silly jingles that brought laughter to those around him. He had a rare gift for making everyone feel seen, encouraged, and genuinely loved.

A graduate of Midwestern University in 1972, Greg worked in aviation electronics before retiring in 2015. He was a devoted member of St. Margaret’s Episcopal Church and sang faithfully in the choir for many years. In retirement, he cherished time with family and friends, reading many books, learning about his family heritage, watching sports, especially cheering on the Razorbacks, and filling everyday moments with joy.

Greg was unapologetically himself, joyful, silly, kind, and forever young at heart. He taught his family the importance of loving boldly, finding joy in each day, and never letting go of your inner child.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Alice (Harkey) Cresswell, his sons, Sean Cresswell (Kim) and Adam Cresswell (Alicia), his stepdaughter, Staci Konrad, his brother, Charles “Cress” Cresswell (Ann), his sister, Nancy Ann Neuendorf, his grandchildren, Madison Hamilton (Garrett), Brittany Cresswell, Makenzie Smith (Jacob), Kaely Cresswell, Brittany Konrad, and Lauren Skinner, and his great grandsons, Kamden and Wesson. He was preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Betty Cresswell and brother Bruce Cresswell.

Greg will be remembered for his joyful spirit, his faith, and the music and laughter he shared so freely. His song lives on in the hearts of all who loved him.

Funeral service to be held Saturday, February 7, 2026 at Graves Memorial Baptist Church in NLR at 11am. Internment service to follow at St Margaret’s Episcopal Church in Little Rock at 2pm.

    Prayers for you and the family.
    Surprised I didn’t bump shoulder with Greg, both being in the aviation world!
